Mattias Hasselbo holds a degree in economics from the Stockholm School of Economics. He has substantial experience as Chief Credit Officer, both from Handelsbanken International and, since 2020, at Handelsbanken Sweden. Prior to that, he built up extensive experience in corporate advisory within the banking sector.

“I am very pleased to welcome Mattias to SEK. To continue strengthening the Swedish export industry and supporting the transition of companies, our credit department is key. Mattias’ broad experience is valuable to SEK’s development and to continue to deliver on our mission,” says Magnus Montan, CEO of SEK.

SEK is a state-owned, commercially driven company with a mission to strengthen Swedish exports by financing Swedish exporters, their subcontractors and foreign buyers of Swedish exports. SEK also finances sustainable transition, both in Sweden and globally.

“I am excited to join SEK and contribute to financing Swedish export companies. SEK’s role as a positive force in the transition is important to society and personally meaningful to me as well,” says Mattias Hasselbo.

Mattias Hasselbo will lead SEK’s credit department, be part of SEK’s Executive Management, and report directly to the CEO. He will assume his position in early January 2025. SEK’s current Chief Credit Officer, Teresa Hamilton Burman, will retire in 2025 after a handover period with Mattias.
